Anyone fascinated with old cemeteries would enjoy a tour of the beautifully maintained grounds of Norwichtown Cemetery. Located on Old Cemetery Lane, the Norwichtown Historic Cemetery was officially established in 1715, but it contains a number of older graves. The two sections of the cemetery are connected by a small bridge. Almost 70 Revolutionary War veterans are buried in the cemetery. Some of the more famous names are the mother of Benedict Arnold and signer of the Declaration of Independence Samuel Huntington. General Jedediah Huntington is also buried in Norwichtown. While not all of people buried in the cemetery were famous, visiting their graves is nevertheless interesting. For those interested in ghost hunting, the town conducts haunted tours of Norwichtown in the fall.
